Once again I turn to you guys for a bit of help. I have looked around every where and can't find replacement transmission cooler lines for our trucks. I have tried LMC, Bronco Graveyard, local parts stores, local salvage yard, even brokedown and called the local stealership. If memory serves I believe I saw a set for the 4WD on Bronco Graveyard, but alas I have a 2WD. I am hesitant to "patch" with fuel hose, I have never had any luck with that, always ends up failing and puking fluid. I am really not wanting to try bending line, I did that for my MF Tractor on the fuel lines and that was a pain in the ****. So who on here has my save the day solution. If you know a place please throw up a link. Or any other help would great.

Thanks in advance.

 

Apologies for the double post...my phone sucks.

 

I know it's not the answer you're looking for but here's how I do it.

I go to advance auto and buy the 3/8" brake line. I buy about 24" of it. I bend it down and around the exhaust and then point it forward. I flare on a 3/8" flare by 3/8" barb adapter. I then run the rest of the lines forward with 3/8" push-lok up to the transmission cooler.

The 24" of hard line I end up cutting roughly in half so it's enough for both hard lines coming out of the transmission.

 

I have a set u can have just don't if it be worth it to u to pay shipping

 

2wd or 4wd shouldn't matter. Should be the same lines.

 

THAT probably works fine, but with my luck I would end up with more leaks than Swiss cheese has holes..I have very little luck with things like this.

 

i need to check that listing again...maybe I missed something

 

I would be interested, even shoot ya a few bucks...I wonder what shipping to 27020 zip code would be

 

One thing to keep in mind...my transmission builder suggested replacing everything cooler and radiator (lines included) before I reinstalled my transmission.


You don't know what kind of contamination is in there...


You can never get it completely clean if there is contamination...


My guy wouldn't warrantee mine if I didn't replace everything.

 

Probably not the perfect fix but I couldn't stand losing transmission fluid anymore, so I found the exact spot of the leak, cut the line, cleaned the burs and put a compression union on there. May not last forever but the leak is gone. Gonna do a fluid change and filter over the holidays I hope. Thanks for all the responses
